i think Joey suffered from having too many 'yes men' around him.
when i say 'yes men' i mean too many people letting him do whatever he wants.
its the same thing that ruined Michael Jackson and Mike Tyson.

the fact he kept it hidden this long from the media shows how tight his club, family and friends rallied around him during his career.

i think if hes going to get any money from this book it should go on those who actually dealt with him during this time.... ie his family and friends...

No, all of the drugs and bipolar stuff was already in the book BEFORE he was caught.

Get your facts straight there Marion.

I've searched the internet yet coulkd not find record of it but I am positive that one news report stated that the book was delayed to allow a re-write - on what basis I admit I don't know. But one COULD assume that it was to at elast add his side of the story.

I guess I am just bitter about his treatement - he is caught, then comes out with ths story and is treated lik a god by some befcause he shows courage in doing so. What would have been courageous is if he came outwithout getting caught.

Persoanlly I think it is a joke wen the likes of he and Mason do something then blame ADD or ACCC or whatever acronym you like - and yes I also think the Cusin's saga is also a joke to whomever brought him up.

He got caught, his time in a cell he describes as his rock bottom, its often whats needed for a person with a problem like this to finally admitit to themselves. A wake up call if you like. Denial is a major factor in addiction/drug abuse.

well he had to add the london incident, because that wasn't a part of the old story...there was some slight editing...

it takes ages to write a book, there's no way he could have had that whole book written after the incident occured...they would have had to have most of the story down already.

basically the story was always going to come out, i suppose it didn't come out the way andrew johns planned.

Hey,if the sh*thole fits...

Hey Titan1. Looking at your avatar's transgression of titanium colours. You've got to admit its like watching yourself being buried in a grave then back out or exhumed again. To me the 1st jumper and colours look the best. Not that this years colours resemble anything like the first. But then again I guess that's what happens when you sell your sould to News Ltd. ;-)
